His arms were bound behind him,
With irons no mortal can break.
And his life was being crushed from him
By a boulder that read, "SIN’S WEIGHT."

His appearance was broken and hopeless,
Dejected, downtrodden, and scorned,
And as leering faces appraised him,
He almost died of horror.

A shudder rose within him,
As he lay there and gasped for breath.
He knew that he was being sold
To a long and hideous death.

A dread arose and filled him,
At the way in which he would die.
And as dark things started bidding,
The man... began to cry.

His silent sobs were tearless.
(He’d long run out of tears.)
And as his body was wracked in grief,
A spirit stepped up named Fears.

Its eyes were round, fused open.
Its face was deathly white.
And as it kicked Mee viciously,
It glared with pale light.

"I’ll take this sniveling coward,"
It said with a voice so hollow.
"I’ll waste his mind with dread and terror
of today and tomorrow."

Before it could finish it’s bidding price,
(Which was it’s frightening oration.)
Another spirit shoved it aside
This one named Temptation.

Black myriads drew in closer
to hear what it had to say.
It gazed at Mee and it cackled,
"Mee, this is your lucky day."

"I’ve studied your person intensely."
"I know just how to make you fall."
"I’ll attack you with out ceasing."
"Before me you’ll grovel and crawl."

"I can crush your puny will."
"I-" But then it was cut short
For a large spirit named Flesh jumped up
And slapped Mee with loud report.

"I can do much better than these."
It pointed to the other fiends
Then it pulled a fist of Mee’s hair
And chuckled at the resulting scream.

"I’ll kill you slowly from the inside."
"I can rot away your heart."
"I am your evil desires."
"I can tear your soul apart."

Then a ghostly figure stepped on the stage.
Looked at Mee with a haunting stare.
And Mee felt a chilling cold inside.
And knew that Guilt had been there.

This ghost named Guilt had witnessed
All Mee’s many ghastly crimes.
And Guilt didn’t have to speak at all.
It just replayed them in Mee’s mind.

Mee writhed and groaned in anguish
As the scenes of his deeds came clear.
All the ugly things he’d done and said
Taunted his internal ear.

Now there was a commotion in the crowd
A commotion Guilt ignored.
"You’ll feel that all your life," it said,
"With me as your lord."

And then appeared a horror that
Imagination could never conjure.
The murderer and deceiver.
It was Satan, Lucifer.

He spat, "Your life is forfeit!"
And he picked up a heavy cross.
And to go with the boulder of SIN’S WEIGHT,
He threw it on Mee with a toss.

And Mee just lay there, helpless.
Barely breathing yet moaning still.
And the demon spawn grinned wildly.
They were eager for the kill.

Then suddenly there was chaos
Way back against the wall
As a man walked through the demon crowd,
Striding straight and tall.

He wasn’t just a human.
He was dressed in purest white.
And any demons in his path.
Were soon put to the flight.

He stepped upon the platform.
He said, "This man is my own."
"For it was I who created him."
And as he spoke his radiance shown.

"This man has sins upon him!"
Hissed Satan, "Your buying price?"
The Man in White said simply,
"I offer my very life."

The auctioneer stood quickly.
And seemed awed at the stranger’s light
"That’s the highest anyone’s ever bid.
Sold... to the Man in White."

Then the stranger, whose name was Jesus,
Love streaming from His face.
Freed Mee from all of his bonds.
And calmly took his place!

The demons, they rushed in savagely.
They beat Jesus black and blue.
They stripped the flesh off of his back.
Then ripped at the muscle, too.

Hair and blood flew everywhere.
Along with human meat.
They pounded His hands to the cross.
And drove a stake through both His feet.

And Mee could only watch,
As the demons had their fun.
And as the cross jolted into a hole,
Mee saw God’s only Son.

His bones could be seen plainly.
His blood pooled thick and deep.
As a spear went through Jesus’ side,
Mee began to weep.

Mee sank to the ground hopless
His One Last Hope had died
The Man had given HIS life for Mee’s
At the thought Mee trembled inside

Then the demons turned their backs
On God’s dead and lifeless Son.
They turned to torture Mee.
Their play had just begun!

Yet as the demon mob came at him.
Mee looked up and gave a shout.
And at the look upon his face,
The demons, again, turned about.

The cold, hard cross was empty!
Jesus stood strong and tall again!
And there was no sign of the boulder,
That once had been Mee’s sin.

There were scars upon His back.
And holes through His hands and feet.
A thousand, thousand demons.
Rent the air with howls of defeat.

Then the Savior sent them screaming
To the pit from whence they came.
And He promised that in the near future.
They would ever there remain.

And Mee just knelt there, trembling.
In awe of the Love and Grace.
That caused his God and Savior.
To die in what was his place.

The soldier's blow
The mockers scorn
The purple robe
The crown of thorns

The center of
The cruel scene
Stands quietly
While others scream

The heavy cross
Golgotha's climb
The roosters crow
The slow of time

The trampling feet
The pooling blood
They mix it in
The soft wet mud

The piercing nails
Blood's trickling path
The sour wine
The Jews' hard wrath

The loss of breath
The strain for air
The screaming nerves
The loving prayer

The cry of death
The grim one reaps
God turns His back
The Angles weep

The veil rent
The soldiers' awe
This man must be
The Son of God

The large mob stomped
His blood in dirt
The soldiers whipped
With blinding hurt

The leaders spit
Friends ran away
Do you still do
These things today?

Lord sober me. I'm seeing double as I fall.
Hold my head in living water till I die.
With your strong hand make the line a wall
Destroy the cords between MySelf and I.
Give me this paradox. Kill MySelf so what's Me may for your purpose rise.

Take my mind so I won't be taken
By some thought, or evil sight

Take my soul, because it's dying
And it’s shriveled, deep inside

Do it now, I'm through denying
Take my heart, my soul, my mind

Lead my mind to battle evil
Mindful prayers cut like a knife

Lead my soul. Its yours forever
It will follow where you guide

To be with you is what I treasure
Lead my heart, my soul, my mind

Thank you Lord. You took my conscience
And you cleansed it purist white

Thank you Lord. You suffered for me
You gave my soul eternal life

I give you praise, glory, and honor
You saved my heart, my soul, my mind.

Girl I loved you ‘fore I knew who you were
And I waited for you, so you’d be the only and first
And if it got hard well, God saw me through
And now I’m so glad, that I waited for you
‘Cause now you can know my love’s so real and true

You know as I think about it, I bow my head and pray
Pray someday I will find you and that faithful I will stay
And I talk to God about you, that you’ll look out for me
That you’ll stand up to pressure and keep your purity
And if you’re ever feeling tempted, please, never say OK
‘Cause when we’re at our wedding
I wanna look you in the eyes
and believe you when you say

Boy I loved you ‘fore I knew who you were
And I waited for you, so you’d be the only and first
And if it got hard well, God saw me through
And now I’m so glad, that I waited for you
‘Cause now you can know my love’s so real and true

I knelt down next to him
I didn’t understand
But strangly up and down my back
I was chilled

He said....
I am an unborn child
I could have kicked and smiled
as well as any baby
I could have played and screamed
I wanted love and dreams
Why did you kill me?

I look up to Jesus
"I’m not the one," I said
But then I was convicted
As He made me see

So you did not thrust the knife
Still, look the child is dead
You didn’t speak up for him
You didn’t speak for me

"I sent this one," He sighed
I felt his pain and cried
As he was torn and thrown away
You sat there silent while
They killed this little child
You’re as guilty as they

(Second Chorus)
How many millions more
Will we murder before
We recognize this horrid sin
Pain, Agony, and Death
No chance for a first breath
One more life thrown in

(Bridge)
The death: it’s so violent
And though the screams are silent
You can hear them call out to you
What are you going to do?
What are you going to do?

CHORUS
If God can heal a broken Humming Bird
You can trust Him with your heart
If He can fix those tiny wings
He can treat a spirit, torn apart
His hands must be so gentle to
Restore the wings so fragile
I think we need hands like that
To ease the pain through which we travel

Inside I struggle just to get one breath
When I can’t sense God anymore
When loved ones are swallowed up in death
Seems alone I must take this frozen path
Yet as I cry my tears into the snow
His warm arms are close, I know

--Chorus--

I look down my road of life to see
All the rooms with wonders inside
My heart turns what seems the perfect key
Then gets slammed in the door of opportunity
As I cry for what can make me whole
God heals body, spirit, mind, and soul

--Bridge--
Your load I can carry
Your burden I will bear
In my storm I will run to the master
Who spoke those words with loving care

--Chorus--
